If that's because it's taking them longer to prepare ALL THIS MONTH'S EXTRA AWESOMENESS, then all is forgiven. :D

That's right. I forgot it was announcement day. Get on with it, Criterion!

I don't stay on top of the stuff as closely as some do, but Le Samourai is definitely not OOP. There has been speculation that it might go OOP at some point, but I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that Criterion's licensing deal is not with Studio Canal.

late spring :thumbsup: |
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
I'm interested in several of these (I'll definitely pick up Harold and Maude and The Organizer, and rent the other two,) but I actually gasped when I saw the Eclipse set. I love the Czech New Wave, and consider quite a few of the films that came out of it to be among the best (and most overlooked) in all of cinema. There's unfortunately some overlap with Second Run, but I'll be more than happy to pick it up for the titles that I don't have. This kind of release is, in my mind, exactly what Eclipse was made for. That set alone easily makes this the best announcement in months and months.

About time for Ozu to be brought into HD. I'm a bit surprised that Tokyo Story wasn't the first out, but... I'll buy whatever they can give me.

Harold and Maude! Spectacular!

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
Hooray for the confirmation of Harold and Maude!

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
You know, I've never seen Harold & Maude, or any Ozu for that matter. I may need to rectify that.
|
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
some good ones, dont care for the Frampton set though.
Wonder how the Ozu will compare to the BFI release given that Criterion gave them the master. Maybe its a from a new master. |
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
All the times Ive seen Harold & Maude I feel like its always been grainy and washed out. Not sure if that's what Ashby had in mind, but I can't wait to see what C does with it.
|
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
Nice to see an Ozu release but, otherwise, this is a bust month for me. Harold and Maude was fun once or twice, but I put it squarely in the 'book was much better' category.
|
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
I've never seen Harold & Maude but I'm going take peoples' word on it that's pretty been good. I know it's probably just me, but aside from some great upgrades, there haven't been any spectacular announcements in a few months.
|
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
Harold And Maude is a day one purchase for me.
|
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
I'll stick to my Ozu DVD for the extras, as I already have all of the BFI discs. In for Harold and Maude and perhaps The Organizer, and I'll rent Alambrista. The Czech box is tempting, even with the Second Run overlap that Sondheim mentioned.

I haven't looked into Carlos as I don't own it, but I would think that's a fair assumption. |
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
Yes!!!! Harold and muade! Yes!!!

The latest Criterion newsletter seems to indicate that an update of Grey Gardens is coming.

Seemed like an unlikely candidate for Blu-ray. Where's Sirk and Mizoguchi already?? |
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
I would LOVE to get all the Sirk's on blu, particularly Magnificent Obsession.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
I'll be happy to purchase Grey Gardens. I never got around to buying the DVD. Blu-ray has been a great catch-up for a lot of titles I missed the first (and sometimes second as well) go around.
And I'm betting Grey Gardens is getting a release because it might be one of the better Criterion sellers. It has a pretty dedicated cult following, and there was of course the HBO movie, too. |
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
I'm sorta new to the whole Criterion thing, but usually what kind of timeframe are we talking about for clues like these? I'm thinking of getting rid of my DVD copy while most people don't know the Blu-ray is coming, but I'd hold off if it won't be for a while.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
The packaging for Godzilla is pretty great.
